Imogene

Imogene, she lives in Reno

All alone with thirteen cats

Every night she passes the casino

Imogene, don't fool with that



Imogene, she drives an old Camaro

But she hardly ever takes it out

If it's true, God's eye is on the sparrow

She's got nothin' to worry about



She says that's life, that's my life

Well, I get what I need and I want what I want

And the bills roll in and the money don't



And I do what I do and I fake the rest

And somehow it all works out for the best

That's life, that's my life



Imogene, she don't take chances

The girl's got a level head

Evaluate the circumstances

That's what her daddy always said



Then one night she passes the casino

Puts a quarter in the slot machine

Drops down, comes up cherries

Way to go now, Imogene



She says that's life, that's my life

Well, I get what I need and I want what I want

And the bills roll in and the money don't



And I do what I do and I fake the rest

And somehow it all works out for the best

That's life, that's my life



Former high school football hero

Knocks on her door like the sweepstakes man

She says, I'm a former high school zero

Now you want to be my friend?



You're as dumb as a day old puppy

You ain't as pretty as you used to be

Here's a quarter baby, go get lucky

Put one in the slots for me, yeah



That's life, that's your life

Well, you get what you need and you want what you want

And the girls roll in but the right one don't



And you do what you do and you fake the rest

And somehow it all works out for the best

That's life, that's your life
